The Heavenly Wolf interrupted Shi Wenliu's words: "Since they are widows, why do you let them reveal their identities and sue the thieves." Is this what you mean or what Yan Shifan means? ”

Shi Wenliu hurriedly said: "This is the meaning of the person who came, he said that it was ordered by the elder of the small pavilion, saying that the elder of the small pavilion is very clear about the situation here, these bandits are unreliable, and only the prestige of the Oriental samurai can suppress them and let them fight with all their might." At that time, I was still not at ease, so I asked the widow what to do if the people of Yiwu knew about it. But the widow said that it didn't matter, that everything was taken care of, and that I would let it go. My lord, that's more than 200 real widows, and the guards under my command are not enough to fight, plus with the support of the elder Xiaoge, I was confused for a while, so I agreed to them. ”

The wolf frowned, these wolf swordsmen were dead and had no proof, but listening to Shi Wenliu's words, they didn't mention Xu Hai and the other three at all, didn't the three of them show up from beginning to end, so the wolf opened his mouth and asked: "Shi Wenliu, are the more than 200 people who have looked for you from beginning to end are the more than 200 people with this scarface, have you ever seen a young scribe, a middle-aged man with a fierce face, and a tall giant?" ”

Shi Wenliu shook his head: "No, the one who talked to me was the scarface of the widow, and there were no three people you said in the people you mentioned, Lord Lang, I really recruited everything, even the elder of the small pavilion confessed, what else is there to hide?" ”

The wolf expected that the three of Xu Hai really deliberately did not come forward, maybe it was really as the three of them said. Deliberately trying to avoid those Oriental swordsmen sent by the Shimazu family, I took pity on these stupid Japanese robbers, and I didn't know what was going on when I betrayed them. Stupidly became cannon fodder.

So the wolf groaned for a moment, and said to the outside, "Come in." A clerk in his forties got up and took more than a dozen densely written letters, it turned out that this person was a document specially seconded by Qi Jiguang, and he had been arranged by Tianluo to record outside the account, this person was brought by Qi Jiguang from his hometown, loyal and reliable. The wolf let him participate in the whole interrogation.

The Celestial Wolf took the confession and threw it in front of Shi Wenliu, only patting him on the back. The ropes that bound his whole body were all stretched at once, and Shi Wenliu suddenly felt relaxed, he was fat, and he was strangled by such a tight rope. My hands and feet are a little numb. It took a while to beat his chest and pause his feet before he eased up this momentum.

Shi Wenliu was rubbing his wrist to make red marks, but he saw the wolf throw a box of red seal clay in front of him along with the confession: "Let's put a handprint." ”

Shi Wenliu trembled and stretched out his fat hand, which was stained all over his fingers in the red ink, trembling and lifting it, hovering on the confession paper, his teeth were trembling, but he couldn't make up his mind to press it. The wolf looked impatient. Stretched out his hand and grabbed Shi Wenliu's wrist, and pressed it heavily on the form. A bright red handprint was immediately stamped on the sign-off place.

The wolf quickly pulled back the paper, looked at it again, stuffed it in his arms, and didn't talk to Shi Wenliu much, and went straight out of the big tent, the full moon was in the sky, the wolf looked up at the white moon, and let out a long breath, the trip to Yiwu finally made a gain, and the next thing was to go back to Hangzhou to find out Zheng Bichang and He Maocai, in order to obtain further confessions, so as to serve as ironclad evidence to bring down Yan Shifan.

The wolf walked into Qi Jiguang's handsome tent, only to see Qi Jiguang being fully armed, looking at the book of soldiers at night, and Liu Decai, who had been pretending to be his own soldier from yesterday to now, was wearing an oil lamp, standing behind Qi Jiguang, staring at the book intently, his human skin mask had been removed, revealing his original capable face.

Qi Jiguang heard the footsteps outside, and raised his head with a smile: "It's all smooth." ”

The wolf smiled slightly, pulled Mazha and sat down by himself: "How did the general know?" ”

Qi Jiguang turned around and glanced at Liu Decai, Liu Decai understood, put the lamp on the table, and after saluting the wolf, he withdrew from the big tent and put down the tent with his hand, and the wolf heard his voice sounding outside: "You two, come with me, General Qi has something important to discuss, don't stay here." ”

After waiting for Liu Decai's footsteps to go away, the heavenly wolf sighed: "General Qi, you have such capable subordinates, it's really enviable." ”

Qi Jiguang said with a smile: "It's really good, but others are very shrewd, but they lack experience, and they have to go to the battlefield to see if it's that material." The footsteps you come in are soft, and if things don't go their way, it won't be. ”

The wolf nodded, and said: "Shi Wenliu vomited, this matter was really instructed by Yan Shifan early on, but it's a pity that Yan Thief is cunning, and all the evidence has been ruined for him, and now except for this Shi Wenliu's one-sided words, he can't hold any of his handles, I think this time I can only take the opportunity to hit Zheng Bichang and He Maocai, after all, the official document they gave is clearly here." ”

Qi Jiguang sighed: "There is a strong enemy outside, and there are thieves at home, it is really difficult for Hu Butang, Brother Tianwolf, I have to trouble you to rush back to Hangzhou overnight, I have prepared a fast horse for you here, although I detained Hua Changmin, but it is difficult to ensure that he sent someone to ventilate and report in advance, you still have to hurry." Shi Wenliu and Hua Changmin will be heavily guarded by me, and I won't let anything happen to them. ”

Tian Wolf smiled: "That Qiqi has General Lao Qi, Chen Dacheng will lead the people to join the army early tomorrow morning, but I am afraid that it will take a few days for you to select the militia in Yiwu here, and Shi Wenliu and Hua Changmin will bother you to take more care, except for Hu Butang, no one's orders should be obeyed." ”

Qi Jiguang said with a straight face: "I know this matter, these two are key witnesses, and I will not hand them over to Zheng Bichang and He Maocai." You have to put away the confession, and you must present it to Hu Butang. ”

The wolf stood up, said goodbye to Qi Jiguang, and after leaving the tent, he didn't take two steps, then Liu Decai led a tall horse over, and said to the wolf: "My lord, this horse is the mount of my general Qi, and this time I ordered you to ride to Hangzhou." Be careful on your way. ”

The wolf nodded, stepped onto the warhorse, and clamped his legs between the horse's belly. The horse neighed, its hooves flew over, and it headed towards the city of Hangzhou like lightning.

It's been three watches, but the wolf doesn't want to delay for a moment, as soon as he thinks that Xu Hai and the others may return to Hangzhou to report the news, he is anxious, and he can't wait to fly back to Hangzhou immediately.

The horse given by Qi Jiguang is a fine horse. After three or four days of dry food and water bags on the saddle, the wolf left Yiwu County overnight and ran along the official road to Hangzhou. On the way to Yiwu with the army, he already knew the towns, mountains and rivers on this official road. Running all the way with torches. The next morning we arrived at the nearest town, and after a sharp beat, we continued on our way.

In this way, the wolf passed by a big town and went on the road directly to eat a meal, galloping all the way day and night, fortunately, the official road from Yiwu to Hangzhou was quite peaceful, and most of the green forest bandits in the nearby cottage were still staying in Yiwu at this time, and there was no delay on the way. After nightfall the next day, the wolf finally rushed back to Hu Zongxian's camp outside Hangzhou.

The wolf took the token given by Hu Zongxian. In the camp all the way unimpeded, until Hu Zongxian's camp tent. This is a large tent separated by a screen between the front and back, usually Hu Zongxian handles business in the front account, and when he is tired, he rests on the marching bed in the back account, after hearing the news that the wolf came late at night, he got up directly in his clothes, and when he walked to the front tent, Xu Wenchang, who received the news, also wore a robe and hurriedly lifted the curtain to enter.

Hu Zongxian saw the appearance of the heavenly wolf all the way, smiled slightly, and pointed to a copper basin on the inside of the entrance of the big tent: "Heavenly wolf, don't worry, wash your face first, and speak slowly." ”

The wolf came all the way, and it was too late to rest, and he stopped at this time, only to feel that he was really a little untidy, he smiled, although it was a mask of disguise, but it was indeed not appropriate to face the governor of the three provinces like Hu Zongxian and the feudal officials in such a disgraced manner, so he went to wash his face, straightened his clothes, and then walked over, Hu Zongxian and Xu Wenchang were also dressed neatly, Hu Zongxian was dressed in a red second-grade official robe, and he was sitting behind the case, and Xu Wenchang was in a green robe and scarf, standing respectfully on one side.

The wolf took out the stack of confessions from his arms, in addition to Shi Wenliu's confession, there were also those confessions given by Hua Changmin and Shi Wenliu's subordinates that he had interrogated before, in order to fear that the confession would be wet with sweat along the way, he also specially wrapped this confession with kraft paper, and wrapped two layers of cloth outside, all the way down to the muscles of the heart, foolproof.

Hu Zongxian opened the cloth bag, took out the confession, and Xu Wenchang looked at it separately, this still has the confession of the wolf's body smell, which is condensing the hard work of the wolf and Qi Jiguang and others, and with the process of the wolf's dictation, he reported to Hu Zongxian in detail what happened in Yiwu these days.

Hu Zongxian and Xu Wenchang had been quietly listening to the wolf, and did not speak, only when the wolf said that Xu Hai and the others appeared, the corners of Hu Zongxian's mouth twitched, but he still did not speak, picked up a cup of strong tea on the table, took a sip, and it was not until after the wolf finished interrogating Shi Wenliu that Hu Zongxian smiled slightly: "Wolf, this time you have really worked hard, you have made great contributions to the court and the country." ”

Sky Wolf also picked up a cup of tea prepared on the table and took a sip, he has always disliked tea, he always felt that he could fade out of his mouth, and spirits were his favorite, but he ran for a day and two nights, and he was indeed a little thirsty, and he was even more thirsty after saying it for a long time, and his throat was smoking, so he drank a big bowl of tea, and really felt much better, and said: "Hu Butang, what should I do now, do you want to take down Zheng Bichang and He Maocai immediately?" With this Shi Wenliu's confession here, even if Yan Shifan can't be cured, he can clean up these two thieves. ”

Hu Zongxian shook his head: "Now is not the time for a showdown, if you just want to take down these two people, it is very simple, Xiao Ge Lao will definitely lose his pawn and protect the car, these two people are just acting on orders, and judging from this confession, they are not involved in the so-called collusion of the widows, it was the Japanese scar face who came to the door by himself, all the evidence pointing to Xiao Ge Lao has been cut off, at this time, at most, they can only be punished from Shi Wenliu for the crime of collusion between officials and businessmen, the crime of corruption and corruption, that is, a dismissal, but in this way, But I want to tear my face with the Yan family, and the officials they send over in the future will restrain me in many ways and make an obstacle from it. ”

Heavenly Wolf also vaguely felt that this would be the result along the way, but he was still not very willing, and sighed heavily: "Could it be that this time he really let go of Yan Shifan, the evil thief?" ”

Hu Zongxian shook his head: "Sky Wolf." The coming day is long, and the most important thing at the moment is to calm the widow, after your lesson this time. I'm afraid that those people don't dare to take risks again, what are the moves with the Japanese in the near future, your trip to Yiwu has two major gains, one is to quell the Japanese rebellion, and because of the blessing of misfortune, General Qi can recruit brave and loyal Yiwu soldiers, over time, you will definitely be able to make a difference. But what I value most is another thing, that is, you met Xu Hai and the three of them this time. Being able to respond to the situation on the spot, planting the seeds of mutual suspicion with Xiao Ge Lao in their hearts, in fact, your actions have basically made the cooperation between these widows and Xiao Ge Lao on the verge of breaking. ”

Sky Wolf didn't realize that his rush at that time had such a great effect, and said strangely: "Is it really so powerful? Unlikely. ”

Hu Zongxian glanced at Xu Wenchang: "Wenchang." What do you think? ”

Xu Wenchang smiled slightly: "The students also agree with the opinion of the Ministry Hall. When those Japanese robbers met with Yan Shifan in Nanjing, they didn't have a very good result, and I think that Yan Shifan was just opening empty money tickets, but he asked the Japanese to come to Yiwu to help him first. ”

"If I were Xu Hai, first of all, I would feel uncomfortable with this kind of behavior of using guns for people, the three of them did not participate in this Yiwu incident, but asked their subordinates to come forward, I think in addition to maybe it is really as they say to kill people with knives. He was also unwilling to fall into Yan Shifan's calculations, after all, the Heavenly Wolf had already appeared at that time. It is unknown whether there are other masters in secret, such as Chief Commander Lu and other Jinyi Guard killers. ”

Sky Wolf smiled slightly: "That's true, I really lived in it and didn't think about it, no wonder Xu Hai and they didn't make a move, and they were afraid of an ambush in the dark." ”

Xu Wenchang continued: "This second, Yan Shifan will definitely say to the Japanese Kou that Hu Butang was recommended by his father and son, and it is their person, as long as he opens his mouth, the ministry will naturally do it one by one, but the conditions he opened are very different from those offered by the department, Xu Hai and others cannot be suspicious, and there are masters like Brother Tianluo in Yiwu, and there are officials and soldiers appearing, even if it is not arranged by Yan Shifan to hack them, at least it means that Hu Butang and Jinyiwei will not be subject to him, and the weight of his words is naturally greatly reduced." ”

"So Xu Hai now, I'm afraid that his trust in Yan Shifan is less than thirty percent, and then Yan Shifan is afraid that he won't have a channel to set up an online line with him, what we have to do is to take advantage of this time when they are suspicious of each other, send people to Wang Zhi, gain their trust, and then provoke them to fight with the Guangdong pirates, and then we can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and buy time for General Qi and General Yu's training, it only takes more than a year, and we can fully counterattack."

Tianluo nodded again and again when he heard this, but he still frowned: "I'll go to deliver the letter, there's no problem, it's just this Yiwu case, how to deal with it in the end, Hu Butang, this matter implicates the Japanese and thousands of people have died, so you can't just leave it unexplained." ”

Hu Zongxian pondered for a while and said: "The key to this matter lies in that Taoist priest, if you can take him, there will be a witness who can directly command Xiao Ge Lao, but this person is not there, this case will not be able to go on, Shi Wenliu's confession is just a lone evidence, Xiao Ge Lao can completely say that he is a bloody person, and the emperor cannot bring down Xiao Ge Lao because of this Shi Wenliu's one-sided words, I don't report this matter, it is the same result." ”

"If you continue to force Hua Changmin and Shi Wenliu again, there will be no new results, Hua Changmin was instructed by Zheng Bichang and He Maocai to serve as a protective umbrella for Shi Wenliu, and he doesn't know about the complication, and now he can only execute Shi Wenliu and Hua Changmin on the charge of inciting civil rebellion and accepting bribes, and end the case here, and these confessions should be kept for future use."

The wolf still couldn't swallow this breath, stood up, and said angrily: "Only kill two scapegoats, and close the case in such a mess?" Hu Butang, my wolf went to Yiwu like this, if it wasn't like this, even if Yan Shifan couldn't be cured, Zheng Bichang and He Maocai, the two thieves, would they get away with it? ”

Xu Wenchang hurriedly said: "Brother Heavenly Wolf, don't be excited, this matter needs to be considered in the long run, and now if you insist on moving Zheng He and the two thieves, you can also dismiss their officials, but this will not help, but instead tear your face with Yan Shifan, this truth, Hu Butang has made it very clear just now." ”

The wolf shook his head: "Yan Shifan just took advantage of your concerns, so he recklessly caused trouble in the southeast, Hu Butang, the more you swallow your anger, the more arrogant he will be, only by purging his people here, can he know that you are not at his mercy, and he will not dare to mess around here in the future." ”

Hu Zongxian's face became stern: "Heavenly wolf, this is a major national matter, don't be rash, I can understand your feelings, but you and I still have to take into account the overall situation." ”

The wolf's body moved, flashed to the front of the big case, copied those confessions in his hand at once, and said coldly: "Hu Zongtang, you have the governor's flag, whether you kill Shi Wenliu and Hua Changmin or not is within your responsibility, and I, the wolf, have no right to intervene, but I was ordered to come to Zhejiang to handle the case, and when I encountered a big case, I can't hide it or not report it, I have to keep this confession and present it to the emperor later."
